fedora docker build fails

[jaeheum]

I have tried the docker build on Fedora31 (5.8.13-100.fc31.x86_64, gcc 9.3.1) with a small modification to the docker incantation: append :Z to -v and add -u root:root to share managarm dir.

xbstrap fails with configuring vim (wide char issue)

checking size of wchar_t is 2 bytes... configure: error: failed to compile test program
xbstrap: Action configure of package vim failed

and xbstrap install --all --keep-going ends with

xbstrap: Skipping action configure of base-devel due to failed prerequisites [264/266]
xbstrap: Skipping action build of base-devel due to failed prerequisites [265/266]
xbstrap: Skipping action install of base-devel due to failed prerequisites [266/266]
xbstrap: The following steps failed:
    configure      coreutils
    build          coreutils (prerequisites failed)
    install        coreutils (prerequisites failed)
    configure      vim
    build          vim (prerequisites failed)
    install        vim (prerequisites failed)
    configure      base (prerequisites failed)
    build          base (prerequisites failed)
    install        base (prerequisites failed)
    configure      base-devel (prerequisites failed)
    build          base-devel (prerequisites failed)
    install        base-devel (prerequisites failed)
xbstrap: Plan failed

I have never used xbstrap before and I'd appreciate some pointer. Thanks!

[avdgrinten]

Thanks you for the report. For clarification: you built the docker image from our Dockerfile and only modified the docker command line, right?

[jaeheum]

Yes I followed https://github.com/managarm/bootstrap-managarm#creating-docker-image-and-container
That gave me permissions error because of host/docker sharing of managarm, and I amended the docker command line.

docker run --group-add root -v $(realpath "$MANAGARM_DIR"):/home/managarm_buildenv/managarm:Z -itu root:root  managarm_buildenv

[Dennisbonke]

So I think I know why vim fails, and I’ll try to fix that tomorrow. I’m curious why coreutils failed for you, do you have a error for that as well?

https://gist.github.com/jaeheum/544c72f5fc6bdfd46d9f9b30a4c7dc47 has the config.log

I don't like running as root even inside a docker image either... can we get the managarm chown'ed at the image creation time?

[Dennisbonke]

Ah, so for the coreutils issue I think you need @avdgrinten. I don’t think we need root at any time during the build (image creation excluded, and even that can be done without due to libguestfs). I’ll need to verify the vim fix, I’m planning on having that done tomorrow

[Dennisbonke]

As of 19a3074 the vim configure issue should be fixed, leaving this open for the docker issue that @avdgrinten is looking at

[jaeheum]

just tried running xbstrap with commit c226694 (HEAD -> master, origin/master, origin/HEAD)

• xbstrap install --rebuild coreutils runs into the same problem still.
• something in tzdata is also wonky

xbstrap: checkout tzdata [164/287]

[Dennisbonke]

Seems like you have an old xbstrap version, can you try upgrading xbstrap with pip3 install -U xbstrap and try it again?

[Dennisbonke]

The docker root issue is indeed not yet fixed, pinging @avdgrinten for that again

[jaeheum]

is xbstrap 0.16 reasonably up-to-date? (it is giving me the same error)

with src/ at 3ad1f4b xbstrap isn't too happy with the yml files anyways

[avdgrinten]

xbstrap 0.16 is up to date. It should not result in these validation errors. Is xbstrap inside the Docker image up to date?

Regarding the configure error in binutils: it seems that the configure script is not happy when run as root. Is there any specific reason why you run as root in the container and not as a normal user?

[jaeheum]

Running the documented docker build and run incatations on Fedora ends with ~/managarm that is chown root:root. (Sigh) I think I have a solution, but it will be at least a few days before I can document it accurately. Building everything takes a long time...

[ArsenArsen]

post the exact commands you ran. the docker image has been used for development and in production for building for a few years, it should not result in bad file ownership if your users id is 1000

[jaeheum]

On Fedora 31, docker is an alias for podman ("rootless docker") and running the documented

docker build -t managarm_buildenv src/docker
docker run -v $(realpath "$MANAGARM_DIR"):/home/managarm_buildenv/managarm -it managarm_buildenv

ends with ~/managarm chown root:root.

If I modify the docker/podman incantation to

sudo docker build -t managarm_buildenv src/docker
sudo docker run -v $(realpath "$MANAGARM_DIR"):/home/managarm_buildenv/managarm:Z -itu managarm_buildenv:managarm_buildenv  managarm_buildenv

then ~/managarm chown managarm_buildenv:managarm_buildenv and xbstrap runs ok.

On Arch, I prefixed the documented docker incantation with sudo.

[avdgrinten]

Thank you for figuring this out. Strangely, on Debian (with Docker CE instead of podman), sudo is not required. We should converge to a solution that does not require sudo on any distribution.
